My bike was taken from my flat by my flat mate’s friend (who is a friend of mine). He was drunk and high on drugs at the time, having never ridden a track bike before; he took it for a ride to Soho in the early hours of the morning on the 10th February, without my knowledge.
He left me a voice mail saying it was stored safely in a hotel lock up and he would return it.Apparently he met some girls staying in a hotel, had a 3some in their room and was too drunk to ride it back. This was over two weeks ago and I have not been able to get hold of him since. His phone is off and I have no way of contacting him.
He has a past history of mental imbalance having spent time in hospital; he claims he has visions through his 3rd eye and believes that he was a samurai warrior in his past life.
I have just discovered he has been recommitted to hospital. This leads me to believe he either sold my bike and paid for two hookers in a hotel with the money or it’s been stolen because it was not locked.
I have been left with no other options but to report it to the police. It’s a very sad situation, not only because I have reported a friend to the police, but because he is clearly very disturbed mentally.After having the bike for over two yrs i have spent a lot of time and money on it and I only just got it looking and feeling the way I wanted it.. So you can imagine how pissed off i am!
Anyway i dont have a recent photo of the finished product.. but this should help

I think people are entitled to their views if prices seem to high, but i think those of you who are criticizing TFG are missing the point.
I have known max for quite some time now and have been buying from him ever since he established TFG. What you have to understand is that he buys all his product straight from Japan therefore the weakening of the £ against the yen has hugely effected his prices and because of this his prices must go up.. that is business.. he runs an independent business and cannot buy huge amounts of stock and compete with larger businesses.
Since day one he has sourced fantastic product and has given many of us access to parts and frames that otherwise we would not get in the UK.
TFG will continue to grow and in my eyes is setting the standard for all track bike boutiques in Europe, i am sure when the £ recovers you will see prices drop.
i bought my vivalo 2 years ago from TFG and got it dirt cheap, i could sell it for more now second hand than i what i initially paid for it new.If you dont like quality products stop hating and go buy some mass produced factory bullshit from your local chain store..
It is yeah! whats up, yeah its pretty crazy.. literally!
good luck in ur search.
